Proverbs Chapter 13American Standard2: A man shall eat good by the fruit of his mouth; But the soul of the treacherous [shall eat] violence. 3: He that guardeth his mouth keepeth his life; [But] he that openeth wide his lips shall have destruction. 4: The soul of the sluggard desireth, and hath nothing; But the soul of the diligent shall be made fat. 5: A righteous man hateth lying; But a wicked man is loathsome, and cometh to shame. 6: Righteousness guardeth him that is upright in the way; But wickedness overthroweth the sinner. 7: There is that maketh himself rich, yet hath nothing: There is that maketh himself poor, yet hath great wealth. 8: The ransom of a man's life is his riches; But the poor heareth no threatening. 9: The light of the righteous rejoiceth; But the lamp of the wicked shall be put out. 10: By pride cometh only contention; But with the well-advised is wisdom. 11: Wealth gotten by vanity shall be diminished; But he that gathereth by labor shall have increase. 12: Hope deferred maketh the heart sick; But when the desire cometh, it is a tree of life. 13: Whoso despiseth the word bringeth destruction on himself; But he that feareth the commandment shall be rewarded. 14: The law of the wise is a fountain of life, That one may depart from the snares of death. 15: Good understanding giveth favor; But the way of the transgressor is hard. 16: Every prudent man worketh with knowledge; But a fool flaunteth [his] folly. 17: A wicked messenger falleth into evil; But a faithful ambassador is health. 18: Poverty and shame [shall be to] him that refuseth correction; But he that regardeth reproof shall be honored. 19: The desire accomplished is sweet to the soul; But it is an abomination to fools to depart from evil. 20: Walk with wise men, and thou shalt be wise; But the companion of fools shall smart for it. 21: Evil pursueth sinners; But the righteous shall be recompensed with good. 22: A good man leaveth an inheritance to his children's children; And the wealth of the sinner is laid up for the righteous. 23: Much food [is in] the tillage of the poor; But there is that is destroyed by reason of injustice. 24: He that spareth his rod hateth his son; But he that loveth him chasteneth him betimes. 25: The righteous eateth to the satisfying of his soul; But the belly of the wicked shall want.
